New To BP - Looking to connect in Greater Philadelphia

[Derek Pheiffer]

Hi BP,

My Name is Derek Pheiffer and I live in the Greater Philadelphia area (Center City –ish to be exact). I'm just getting started with the many resources BP offers (books/podcasts/forums) to familiarize myself with REI, but very excited to be joining such a large and supportive community. I currently work a standard "day job" in an office (actually located in Wilmington, DE), however my goal is to begin to generate and build my wealth in other avenues outside a typical paycheck and become more financially independent/free.

I want to reach out to any members in the area that are interested in connecting as I begin my journey. My short-term goals are to get my feet wet with a SFR and possibly dipping into flips this year, and from there scale and modify my strategy. I am interested in connecting with really anyone involved with the whole process as I get started (realtors, wholesalers, mortgage brokers, flippers, and of course other investors!).
